COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONReverence Series #1: Our first beer in our Reverence series of traditional European-style beers, is a sessionable German lager known as a Zwickelbier - a very old ’classic’ with a heritage traced back to the Middle Ages. Zwickel, pronounced ‘zv-ick-el’, is unfiltered, unpasteurized and finishes as a smooth-drinking, vitamin rich (from the yeast), naturally cloudy beer. Hops: Hallertau Perle, Hallertau Mittelfrüh. Malts: Two-Row Pilsner.

Draft notes from Lansdale Brew Fest. Poured hazy gold with white clingy head. Nose was pale malt, hopcitrus, with a smooth flavor of the pale malt, hopcitrus, complexity from the non-filtration, and this is a definite beer you could gladly drink all day.

Cloudy gold with two inches of nice white foam. Nose has notes of grass, wheat, hay, with slight citrus. Beer is crisp, clean, and effervescent on the palate. Taste is malty in the middle with a clean mild hop finish, I would classify this beer as easily drinkable, uncomplicated, and sessionable. Overall this is a great representation of a simple beer expertly done.

Nice aroma of toasty caramel. Nice yellow color with a huge white head. Sweet rich caramel up front. Smooth. peppery bitterness comes in next and is a perfect match for the sweetness. Slick mouth feel with nice carbonation. Finish is a combo of sweet and some pepper, urging you to got right back for more. Great lager.
